Abstract
An electrical connector made of overlapping layers of flexible film 8 carrying conductive traces 9 for interconnecting pins 1 to connection pads 10 on a printed circuit board surface 2a. Cylindrical elastomeric bodies 11 having parallel spaced apart conductors 25 thereon connect the traces 9 to the pads 10. Pins 1 impinge a rigid backing plate 18 upon axial forces to the pins 1 which resists axial movement of the pins 1 relative to solder joints 19 between the pins 1 and the traces 9.
